Definitions
- This invention relates to rotary combustion engines of trochoidal type, and more particularly to a die-cast rotor housing having liquid cooling means for such engines.
- the inner wall of the peripheral shell requires a certain thickness at its side faces both radially inward and outward of the coolant passages for the provision of gasket grooves, and in the prior art this thickness was carried uniformly across the axial width of the shell, that is, the passage went straight through in the axial direction. It was not recognized that the pattern of heat flux also varies axially across the width of the shell, with the highest heat input at the midplane between the side walls. An inner wall of constant thickness makes no provision for this circumstance, with the result that the thickness required to accommodate the gaskets, when carried straight across, leaves the thicknes at midplane too high to permit cooling at that point to the desired temperature of the working surface. Also, uneven cooling may cause distortions and occasional cracks, as well as undesirable wear and erosion of the inner surface.
- Sand-casting is a slow and relatively expensive mode of fabrication, and it is desirable to form the shell by means of die-casting, which would greatly increase production and lower costs. It has heretofore been impracticable to form by die-casting a peripheral shell of a rotary engine wherein the generally axial coolant passages are canted radially inwardly from their axial ends toward the midplane of the shell in order to reduce the inner wall thickness at that location. When a casting die is opened to discharge the product, the several parts of the die must each be retracted only in a straight line.
- the present invention overcomes these difficulties.
- the present invention provides a die-cast doublewalled peripheral housing shell for rotary combustion engines of trochoidal type, having generally axially disposed coolant passages between the double walls thereof, the axially outer ends of the passages being disposed further radially outwardly than the midportions of the passages to provide a thin-sectioned inner wall at the midportion of the shell, and a means of die-casting the shell with a minimum number of mold parts. Provision is also made for forming the coolant passages with a smaller cross-section at the midplane of the shell than at the axial ends of the passages, in order to accelerate coolant flow at the center where heat input is highest and thereby minimize temperature variation across the shell.
- the die-casting is performed in a permanent mold by pressure die-casting, by gravity-fed pressure casting, or by centrifugal casting.
- a further object is to provide such a housing shell wherein the coolant passages have a smaller cross-section at the midportion than at their ends, to accelerate coolant flow in the midportions.
- Still another object is to provide a multipart permanent mold for forming such peripheral shells.
- FIG. 1 is a view along the axis of the generally annular, double-walled peripheral shell of the invention
- FIG. 2 is a diagrammatic view and graph showing the relative rates of heat input to the peripheral shell in the axial direction in certain portions of the shell;
- FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional elevation of an assembled permanent mold for foming the shell
- FIG. 4 is a fragmentary cross-section in elevation taken on line 4-4 of FIG. 1 and showing one of the coolant passages;
- FIG. 5 is a similar view showing another embodiment of the shell with a coolant passage of modified form.
- FIG. 6 is a similar view taken on line 66 of FIG. 1 and showing one of the coolant passages in the portion of the shell wherein the inner wall is not thinned.
- FIG. 1 shows a view of the side face of a peripheral shell or rotor housing 1 1 of a trochoidal engine of two lobes, although it will be understood that this invention is also applicable to such engines having other numbers of lobes.
- the shell 11 has an inner trochoidal surface 12 and comprises a generally annular die-cast member having double walls spaced apart radially by ribs or webs 13, and generally axially oriented coolant passages 14 and 14a extending from side to side of the shell between the double walls and spaced apart circumferentially by webs 13.
- the shell may be provided with a peripheral inlet port 16 and a peripheral outlet port 17 extending generally radially through the shell as shown, but it may be preferred to have either of such ports in one or both of the engine side walls 18 (shown in FIG. 2) which close the shell to form the engine cavity.
- Each side face of the shell may also be provided with circumferential gasket grooves 19 disposed radially inside and outside the coolant passages, but alternatively may have the channels 192 for the gasketing arrangement shown in FIG. 5.
- One or more bosses 21 for spark plugs, fuel injectors, or other uses may also be provided, disposed at appropriate locations.
- the circumferential brackets A, B, C, and D surrounding the shell 11 denote zones of heat input to the shell, zones A, B, and C collectively comprising the region of highest heat input.
- Bracket A delineates approximately the region of highest compression of the engine, wherein combustion is initiated.
- Zone B is the region of initial expansion of the burning gases, and zone C is the region of final expansion before discharge of the gases through the exhaust post.
- Zone D comprises principally the region of intake of fresh charge and the beginning of compression, wherein heat input to the shell from the interior of the engine cavity is negligible, but wherein the shell walls receive some heat by conduction from the regions where combustion takes place.
- the shell passages receive the coolant from headers or other channels in a side wall and discharge it to similar channels in the opposite side wall.
- Coolant from pumping means is introduced into the system usually at the beginning of the hot zone, and all of the passages are interconnected for flow of the coolant back and forth serially through the circumferentially disposed passages of the shell until taken off to a radiator. .For this reason the shell passages 14 in the hot region have small cross-sections to accelerate the flow, and are numerous to provide adequate cooling.
- Passages 14a in the cool zone D may be fewer in number and a larger cross-section to accommodate the total flow, high velocity being of less importance in the cool
- the peripheral shell 11 is formed of metal, and in sand-casting of the prior art has commonly been formed of iron or an aluminum alloy. For speed of production and resultant economy it is preferable that it should be die-cast in a permanent mold, of one of the die-casting alloys such as aluminum or magnesium. If the coolant passages were straight in the axial direction from one side of the shell to the other, the production of a suitable die would present no problem.
- the side elements of the mold would each have a plurality of axially extending fingers which would meet at the midplane of the shell, and after the casting shot the side elements of the die would be retracted in the straight axial direction, leaving passages formed by the fingers.
- Mold 23 is a multipart die having a pair of side pieces 24 each having a projection 26 of trochoidal profile protruding axially inwardly and meeting at the midplane of the mold cavity. These projections 26 define the trochoidal inner surface 12 of the completed shell casting. After solidification of the casting, side parts 24 are retracted in the straight axial direction, as shown by the broad arrows.
- the draft angle on projections 26 need only be very slight, and has been somewhat exaggerated in the drawings. For a draw of one inch a taper of about /z between the axis and the surface is sufficient; for a draw of about three inches a taper of approximately 1 is suitable. For longer draws the taper may be appropriately increased.
- the remainder of the mold comprises a plurality of circumferential pieces which collectively close around the side pieces 24 and their trochoidal projections 26 to define a generally annular mold cavity 27.
- Circumferential pieces 28 have a generally L-shaped cross-section, one leg 29 of which surrounds and abuts a portion of the circumference of side piece 24, the other leg 31 meeting the corresponding leg 31 of the opposite circumferential piece which is a mirror image.
- Each leg portion 29 of circumferential pieces 28 has protruding from its axial inner surface a plurality of finzone.
- the number and proportions of coolant passages l4 and 14a shown in FIG. 1 are not intended to be specific, but only to illustrate a general relation.
- the variant circumferential distribution of heat input I to the shell is provided for in the distribution of the coolant passages, but heat input in the hot region collectively denoted by the brackets A, B, and C also varies in the axial direction, across the width of the shell.
- This is shown by the schematic representation of FIG. 2.
- the peripheral shell 11 and the side walls 18 are fragmentarily shown, with a general curve 21 representing the pattern of heat distribution to the shell in the axial direction. Fromthe curve 21 it will be seen that the highest rate of heat input to the shell in the axial direction is approximately at the midplane 22 be tween the side walls 18, dropping off to a noticeably lower value in the vicinity of the side walls.
- the fingers 32 are canted from strict parallelism with the axis, their inner ends being radially closer to the axis than their bases, the fingers thus pointing slightly inwardly toward a plane parallel with the axis.
- the fingers protruding from each die part 28 have plane surfaces on their inner ends and meet the corresponding fingers protruding from the opposite side of the midpoint of the die, thue providing a thin inner wall of the housing shell 11 at the midplane 22.
- each finger 32 is disposed and spaced apart in the circumferential direction, it is not practicable to have each finger pointing toward the axial line of the mode. Such a disposition would place the fingers in a conical array with a different angle for each, requiring a separate die part for each finger, each being retractable along a different angle. Instead, a certain number of fingers for passages 14 are grouped for a single die part. The type of grouping is shown in FIG. 1.
- the passages for zone A can be grouped for forming by a single pair of opposed die parts 28, a second pair being used for the passages of zone B, and a third pair of zone C.
- All the fingers 32 grouped on any single die piece 28 have their own axes parallel to each other and their inner ends slanted toward a plane which is approximately a plane including the chord of the curvature of the circumferential piece 28 from which they extend.
- each piece 28 can be retracted in a direction parallel with the axes of its fingers, as shown by broad arrows in FIG. 3.
- each die part 28 need not be precisely those shown under the brackets A, B, and C.
- the number of passages which can be grouped and their circumferential extent depend in part of the degree of curvature in any given part of the housing, the size of the passages, and the desired thickness of the separating ribs. 1
- Die parts 28 may also have a pair of circumferential lands 33 protruding from the inner faces of legs 29, for forming the gasket grooves 19, on land 33 being disposed radially inwardly of fingers 32 and the other land radially outwardly of the fingers.
- the radially outward surfaces of lands 33 are sloped parallel with fingers 32, in order to offer no resistance when the die parts are retracted in a direction parallel with the fingers.
- gasket channels 19a may be provided, as for forming the gasket channels 19a of the housing shown in FIG. 5.
- Channels 19a receive a flat circumferential gasket which is apertured at the coolant passages, rather than the pair of O-rings or similar gaskets which are installed in channels 19.
- gasket channels of the form 19a are to be utilized, the inner faces of legs 29 of die parts 28 will have flat circumferential protrusions of appropriate form and size, with the fingers 32 extending from the gasket-forming protrusions.
- Gasket channels of either form of 19 or 19a may be provided in either of the housing embodiments shown in FIGS. 4 and 5.
- the coolant passages 140 being in a generally cooler region of shell 11, need not have the inner wall of the shell thinned at the midplane.
- Passages 14a may extend straight through in the axial direction between the walls of the shell.
- passages 14a may be formed by a single pair of circumferential die pieces 36, shown at the bottom of FIG. 3, wherein the fingers 32 extend from the inner faces of die parts 36 in the straight axial direction, and the die parts are retracted axially, the circumferential curvature of the die part presenting no problem for retraction parallel with the mold axis.
- the permanent mold assembly 23 is shown in FIG. 3 is a pressure die-casting mold, having a shot sleeve 37 and a ram 38 for injecting molten metal, and one or more appropriate venting apertures 39 disposed at convenient locations. Knockout pins may also be provided if required. that the shown for pressure die-casting, it is to be understood that the permanent mold may also be for gravity-fed pressure casting, or that centrifugal casting may be employed. Elements for closing and opening the mold are conventional and therefore not shown.
- FIG. 4 is a fragmentary cross-section through a portion of a peripheral shell 11, showing one of the coolant passages 14.
- the inner wall of the shell is thinnest at the midplane 22, having been formed by the slanted fingers 32 of the die parts 28 shown in FIG. 3, but still has enough thickness at its axial faces to hold the gasket grooves 19.
- the passage 14 has a 6 substantially constant cross-section throughout its length, the onlyvariation being that of the draft angle of the fingers, which is negligible, being of the order of /z to 1.
- FIG. 5 shows an embodiment wherein passage 14 has a markedly smaller crosssection at the midplane 22 than at the ends. This configuration is produced by giving the axes of the die fingers 32 a somewhat greater angle of slant toward the chordal plane than in the previous embodiment, and tapering off the radially inward sides of the fingers to the desired smaller cross-section at their meeting ends in the midplane of the mold.
- the passages 14 of FIG. 5, reduced in their cross-section at the midportion by diminshing only their radial dimension in that region, have the advantage of gradual increase of the velocity of coolant flow from its entrance at one axial end of the passage to the midportion, followed by an equivalent decrease of velocity to its exit at the opposite end of the passage.
- FIG. 6 shows one of the coolant passages 14a in the cooler portion of the shell 11, formed by die parts 36 having fingers extending axially, with a straight pull of the die.
- this invention provides a permanent mold-cast peripheral rotor housing for a trochoidal engine, the shell being generally annular and having double walls with coolant passages extending in the generally axial direction therebetween, the inner wall in at least some of the passages being thinner at the midplane of the shell than at the axial side faces. Also provided is a method of diecasting such a shell, and a permanent mold for practicing the method.
- a generally annular die-cast rotor housing shell for rotary internal combustion engines of the trochoidal type having a longitudinal axis and parallel side faces normal to the axis, the shell having an inner wall with a trochoidal inner surface and an outer wall spaced apart radially from the inner wall and having a plurality of generally axially oriented coolant passages therethrough between the inner and outer walls open at each side face and spaced circumferentially around the shell for flow of liquid coolant theret'hrough across the width of the shell in the generally axial direction
- the improvement comprises: at least some of the coolant passges having rectilinear individual axes slanted from each side wall angularly to the inner trochoidal surface and meeting at an angle at a position radially closer to the shell axis at the mid-plane between the shell faces so that the the inner wall of the shell is thinner at the midportion than at the side faces, the coolant passages having slanted axes comprising a plurality of groups
- each of the coolant passages having slanted axes has a substantially constant cross-section throughout its length from one side face to the other.
- each of the passages having slanted axes has a cross-section gradually diminishing from relatively larger at each side face to relatively smaller at the midportion to gradually accelerate the flow of liquid coolant therethrough from one side face to the midportion and decelerate the flow from the midportion to the other side face.
